    Abstract: The photomask and the associated method of lithography and mask technique enable production of a regular configuration of resist dots or holes. At least one photomask is a phase mask. The method is useful for the production of magnetic memory components, in particular MRAM memories, having elliptically shaped magnetic memory elements of high density.

    Abstract: Layers are patterned with a lithography method during the fabrication of integrated circuits. A mask, which may be reflective or transmissive, for carrying out the method. The photosensitive layers are exposed to radiation that is emitted by a radiation source. The radiation lies in the extreme ultraviolet region and is guided via the mask onto the photosensitive layers.

    Abstract: Imaging errors in optical exposure units for the lithographic structuring of semiconductors are determined. First, a latent image of a mask is first produced in a photoactivatable layer by exposure using the optical exposure unit to be tested. After heat treating for increasing the contrast and developing the exposed resist, the latter is treated with an amplification agent which preferably diffuses into the exposed parts of the photoresist. There, it reacts with groups of the photoresist. This leads to an increase in the layer thickness of the resist in the exposed parts. A topographical image of the surface of the photoresist, which can be created, for example, by scanning electron microscopy, then indicates imaging errors by protuberances which are located outside the image of the mask. The method permits testing of optical exposure units under production conditions and thus facilitates the adjustment and the checking of all components of the exposure system used for the production of microchips.
